NYC Alliance Holdings sought to advance its visibility into product development data and remove manual processes to improve workflow speed and gain insight into product design adoption. The company also wanted a solution that provided triggers and alerts that would enable the team to address production issues. With the CGS team's extensive expertise and resources in the consumer lifestyle products market, the implementation of BlueCherry PLM will help support NYC Alliance Holdings' growth, bring end-to-end visibility to its product lifecycle and improve its timeline to bring goods to market.

"Having been a BlueCherry ERP customer for five years now, we wanted to add a solution to improve our product lifecycle visibility and remove manual processes," said Kevin Lowney, supply chain and logistics manager, NYC Alliance Holdings. "We felt that CGS's BlueCherry PLM would be the perfect fit to enable full integration across our other BlueCherry implementations. We're excited that BlueCherry PLM will offer better visibility into product development, improving our processes, eliminating silos and enabling us to bring goods to market faster."

"With over 30 years of experience in the fashion, footwear and consumer product market, CGS understands the value of having the right solutions in place to efficiently and effectively run business operations," said Paul Magel, president, Business Applications and Technology Outsourcing division, CGS. "NYC Alliance Holdings has been a valued customer for several years. We're excited that they chose to continue to implement BlueCherry solutions to support their growing operations."
